As we all know this is a touchy topic and I do not want to offend anyone by any means. Everyone has their own opinions about this situation and that is fine. Although my opinion might not be what you agree with, which is fine with me but I am going to have to say something so please don't judge. I don't agree with this "bill". I feel that abortion should not be an option at ALL. I don't care the circumstances unless it was an emergency situation. South Carolina is currently giving in with abortion procedures ONE hour after having an ultrasound done. The bill is being processed wanting to go over a 24 hour period before doing the procedure but problems have arose like the women wouldn't have enough money to cover the medical expenses for gas and the medical bill for two days instead of just one. I totally disagree with all of this but if I had to put my two sense in, I would say do it the next day. Then, by that time it may give the women another chance to rethink plans and that sort of thing. I just don't understand how some people dont realize that the minute after conception that 'baby' no matter how small like a peanut or as big as a baseball has a heartbeat and is becoming a human! Noone should have the right to just 'kill' an innocent baby. That to me would be considered murder and could not bring me to the point of knowing that. I understand that there are other reasons but that doesnt change my opinion.

Bill about Abortion Procedures
I chose to read an article from the Feminist Daily News Wire link and the article that I read had to do with South Carolina requiring a 24 hour waiting period prior starting abortion procedures. This article can be found @ South Carolina Bill Would Require 24 Hour Waiting Period Prior to Abortion Procedures.

Allison,
ReplyDeleteI found the article but I could not get your link to work. Make sure you check that your links work before publishing.
This was a short article, but I think you could have said a little more in your summary about the bill. For example, I thought it was interesting that SC requires women to view the ultrasound in the first place. You might have mentioned something about which states have such a law.
Do a little more proofreading before publishing. There are a few grammatical mistakes that are easy fixes here: "waiting period prior (to) starting," "my two sense" (cents). Place terminal periods and commas within quotation marks. (I don't agree with this "bill." not I don't agree with this "bill".)Don't forget apostrophes in contractions (dont should be written as don't, doesnt should be written as doesn't).
Overall, you did a decent job. Just watch the small stuff. Make sure your links work.
I agree with you a hundred percent. I also believe that a baby is a human at conception. I understand the arguement that abortion is accepted in cases such as rape, but to me, that innocent child had no control over how it was conceived. I also believe heavily in putting the baby up for adoption.I know so many people that could not have children and without adoption, could not have their dreams come true.
ReplyDeleteI totally agree with you. Babies don't choose to be conceived, people choose to do things that will lead to conseption. I know it is a whole different situation if it is rape, but I belive that it is still life and shouldn't be taken away. But I'm not that old and havent experenced much "real life" yet so some of my views could be clouded. Anyways, I liked your article and how you voiced your oppinion loud and clear! Keep up the good work. XD
